<p>I just want to say, I am not rich!!!</p>
<p>I have four horses at home and I too agree that it is most definitely a sport. I have been riding... for uhm... a good 7 or 8 years, and let me just say, anyone who thinks that it isn't a sport or that it isn't physically demanding, why don't you try it. I've made some of my friends ride who have said that it isn't a sport... let's just say that the don't anymore. </p>
<p>I can understand the whole argument part of it, I've gone through that too, and I can understand how it isn't worth it. </p>
<p>Anyway, Equestrian is a sport. period.</p>
